Watercolored Background and Varied Vases Bundle Card

   Hello crafters. It's the weekend!!! Any plans??? I'm getting a new fridge today! If you have seen it, there is a commercial that Lowe's does that shows a woman getting sad then happy about having to get a new fridge that reminds me of how I felt when our current fridge starting failing. You get sad because you have to spend the money on a new fridge...BUT you are getting a new fridge! Lol. Anyways here is my card today. I did another one with the Varied Vases Bundle but totally different.


     I decided to watercolor this one and make it very simple. I choose three coordinating colors to water wash the background. This is very simple to do, you start with the lightest and work down to the darkest. Wet your watercolor paper first as this makes it easier to blend them all together so it looks more seamless.


     I love embossing with the White Embossing Powder on colored cardstock. I wanted a more simple, dramatic look with the flowers stamped in black and to let the background show through. A tip...emboss first then punch out to make it easier.


   I kept the sentiment simple too by stamping onto just a piece of Whisper White and highlighting with the Basic Rhinestones. I am loving the new Whisper White Tulle Ribbon. It can add such a simple or elegant look.


     Continuing with it looking simple, I just stamped the edge and a beautiful sentiment. I used the same ink colors from the watercoloring on the front. This bundle is so amazing and versatile. Another tip...use the DSP (Designer Series Paper) and the Vases Builder Punch for instant colored vases!

Hugs,

Julie
